Re: Cleaning fuel injectors

You are ASSUMING that the injectors are the problem without testing even
the
basics!

Pull a spark plug or two and LOOK at them!!

Are they wet, flooded, sooted, fouled?

Pull a plug wire, install a spark tester and ensure that you are getting a
spark to the plugs.

How low is the battery?

Electronic ignitions have a minimum voltage requirement, the voltage
available during cranking may be to small for the ignition to function.

Check the basics and you will find the 'no start' problem, after that then
use the Chevron techtron to maintain your fuel system.
